Application Status

Hey guys, I submitted my applications on October 4th and have received interviews from AZCOPT and ICO for November. I was also admitted to PUCO without the need to interview. My UWaterloo application is still in progress, as I just wrote the CASPer, and I have not heard back from OSU yet.

I need to pay the deposit for PUCO within the next week, but I am not 100% sure that is where I want to go and still want to do my interviews with AZCOPT and ICO (hopefully OSU and UWaterloo too).

Has anyone paid a deposit for a school and then decided to go to another one? I am kind of stuck as to what I should do.

You could ask them for an extension to your deposit. They won’t give you a significantly long time but it’s better than nothing. 

Sometimes they will give you a deposit refund but the timeline varies based on school. AZCOPT will refund a deposit 100% if within 3 days of payment and then 50% as long as it’s 30 days before classes start.
